Reviews
Since we arrived at the port of Tortola, we had the pleasure of having Franky as our captain and Kate as our chef. They met all of our expectations, plus some! Every meal was delicious and there was plenty of it. Captain cocktail hour was something we looked forward to at the end of the day. Kate's food was fabulous and different very day. Franky's knowledge of the BVI area was very professional. The excursions they booked for us were over the opt! One of our favorites as the conch island. We had a vacation of a lifetime and will be returning. We highly recommend sailing on the Alora! Cam on as strangers, leaving as friends.

Franky, the Captain, was awesome and took us to some great spots for snorkeling, wave and paddle board, hiking and beaches.
Kate, the cook, prepared the 5 star meals with a presentation that was over the top.
We’d do it again with this boat and crew .
Paige and Rorke are truly a delight to be with, and provided a level of service well above and beyond our expectations. This has definitely been the dream trip I hoped it would be!
The food was amazing and presentation was incredible. Our family could not have had a better time, cannot recommend enough!
Our experience aboard the Alora was nothing short of exceptional, Thanks to the outstanding care and professionalism of Rorke and Paige!
Rorke, as captain, displayed a high level of maturity and expertise handling the vessel. He also led our fishing adventures with great success – barracuda, a bonito, and more.
Paige is an incredible host and chef, preparing meals, snacks and drinks every day. Everyone was delighted and satisfied and full!
Together they created a warm and fun atmosphere, The four of us consider it an all – time favorite experience. We highly recommend them specifically for a terrific adventure.
